Patent EP-1178668-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SIMSKE STEVEN J
IPC: H04N1/38
Filed: 2001-04-05
Abstract: Various backgrounds (FIG. 2), forms (FIG. 8), or templates (FIG. 5) are scanned,
features are extracted, and the features are stored in memory. When a composite image
(FIG. 3, FIG. 6, FIG. 9) is scanned (image of interest plus part of background), features
are extracted from the composite image. Features in the composite image are correlated to
stored background features to identify which background is present. If necessary,
background features from memory are shifted in two dimensions to accommodate
displacement of the background. Features corresponding to the background are deleted
from the features in the composite image. For forms and templates, features are used to
identify the background, and then the information is directly extracted from the composite
image.

Abstract: An object of the invention is to draw the scope of shadows of a solid
body, generated by light and illuminated regions of the solid body, formed by
light, on a display device at high speed and with accuracy by means of a less
and simple operation. A process of generating a shadow (Ls) in 3-D
computer graphics comprises the steps of forming a solid body (ABCPQR)
as a shadow space of a polygon (ABC) by causing respective vertices (A, B,
C) of the polygon (ABC) to be shifted in the vector direction of the light rays
(L) to the boundary of the drawing space, increasing luminance within a
scope of faces on the back side of the solid body (ABCPQR) as seen from the
point of view (E) at the time of drawing with respect to respective faces
composing the solid body (ABCPQR) by adding to the extent of a constant
(K) for luminance adjustment to the luminance within the scope of the faces
on the back side of the solid body (ABCPQR), and decreasing luminance
within a scope of faces on the front side of the solid body (ABCPQR) as seen
from the point of view (E) at the time of drawing by subtracting to the
extent of the constant (K) for luminance adjustment from the luminance
thereof, wherein a change of luminance with respect to the polygon (ABC)
which is a shaded face is prohibited after processing of the shaded face.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des protéines modifiées qui conservent une activité enzymatique et insecticide tout en affichant une allergénicité réduite ou supprimée. Des épitopes se liant à des anticorps anti-patatine sont identifiés et éliminés via une mutagenèse orientée site. On a observé que les tyrosines contribuent généralement aux propriétés allergéniques des protéines de patatine. On a également observé que la suppression de sites de glycosylation réduit et supprime une liaison d'anticorps. L'invention concerne également des permuprotéines possédant une séquence d'acide aminé réagencée tout en conservant une activité enzymatique. On peut utiliser les protéines et les permutéines désallergénisées comme matériaux insecticides, compléments alimentaires, et agents immunothérapeuthiques.

Abstract: A system and method are disclosed which constrain a microcomponent that is totally released from a substrate for handling of such totally released microcomponent. A preferred embodiment provides a system and method which constrain a totally released microcomponent to a base (e.g., another microcomponent or a substrate). For example, a preferred embodiment provides constraining members that work to constrain a microcomponent to a substrate as such microcomponent is totally released from such substrate. Accordingly, such constraining members may aid in preserving the microcomponent with its substrate during the release of such microcomponent from its substrate during fabrication. Additionally, a preferred embodiment provides constraining members that are suitable for constraining a totally released microcomponent to a base for post-fabrication handling of the microcomponent. To further aid in post-fabrication handling of totally released microcomponents, a preferred embodiment may be implemented as a "pallet" having one or more microcomponents constrained thereto. Moreover, constraining members of a preferred embodiment enable the totally released microcomponent to be removed from such constraints when desired, but prevents the totally released microcomponent from inadvertently escaping such constraints. For instance, in one embodiment, the constraining members are implemented as moveable members that can be moved to unconstrain the totally released microcomponent from its base.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un régulateur de courant conçu pour un pilote de mode de courant multiniveaux, qui comporte une référence de tension multiniveaux et au moins un signal d'étalonnage source. Un comparateur est relié par un réseau de couplage à la référence de tension multiniveaux et au signal d'étalonnage source. Une tension choisie est appliquée à partir de la référence de tension multiniveaux et un signal d'étalonnage source choisi est appliqué au comparateur à partir du signal d'étalonnage source. En outre, l'invention concerne un système et un procédé permettant de générer au moins un niveau de tension de référence dans un système de bus. Un générateur de tension de référence sur un pilote de courant comprend au moins un niveau de tension de référence, au moins un signal de commande et un dispositif actif, ce dernier étant relié audit signal de commande, par exemple un signal de commande de courant, et à une tension de référence choisie dudit niveau de tension de référence. Le dispositif actif est conçu pour décaler le niveau de tension de référence  sur la base du signal de commande de courant, par exemple un signal d'égalisation, un signal diaphonique, ou la combinaison de ces derniers, employé sur le pilote de courant. L'invention traite également de mécanismes à faible latence conçus pour des systèmes de communications multi-modulation d'impulsion en amplitude qui réduisent le retard et la complexité au niveau des mécanismes de correction de signaux. Les mécanismes d'égalisation tirent parti des signaux d'entrée d'un pilote de signaux multi-MIA, et compensent l'atténuation le long d'une ligne de transmission de signaux, la diaphonie entre des lignes contiguës, et des réflexions de signaux dues à des discontinuités d'impédance le long de la ligne.
